Autism advocate calls Trump’s statements on the condition ‘stigmatizing’
The FDA said it was approving leucovorin, a drug used to treat the toxic effects of chemotherapy, as a therapy for some people with autism. The active ingredient is a modified version of vitamin B9, also known as folate. Officials claimed it could help stem what they called an “epidemic” of autism. Amna Nawaz discussed more with Zoe Gross, director of advocacy at Autistic Self Advocacy Network.
